IL Don't Exactly Prohibit.

The ProhibitiOnists will find cold COM
fort in the confession of Governor Bod
well. OF Maine. that he is practically
powerless to enfore the Prohibition Law
in the State of its birth. Maine was the
pioneer in the fight against the evils Of
lntempergnce by means of Prohibition.
Neal Dow succeeding in getting law
through the Legislature as long ago as
lS1l fOThiddIng the sale Of spirituous
liquors within the borders of the State.
and for 80 years Maine mas been nomi-
naily governed under that law. That II
was not enforced has been well known
but Governor BOdwel. IS the first ruler
OF the State who has corfirmed the fact.
He says
l am trying To enforce Prohibition in
MaiEe, but | find il is the biggest Job
that l ever undertook in nv life. The
law is fairly we'll enforced in the ruraI
districts, and receives the support of
the community, but in the larger cities
and towns in is impossible 70 enforce il.
as the liquor men defy Il. ard in MANY
instances the local authorities conspire
with the violatOrs and accept bribes
from them.
The Portland Press, which has ALWAYS
been the champion of Prohibition In
Maine, insists that after an earnest and
'aithtul trial, il has been a failure that
Prohibition does rot prohibit that while
the laws are rigid and comprehensive
against the sale OF liquors, sufficiently
Sd II enforced TO drive every body out OF
the business, no way has been found to
enforce them practically. as they do not
meet the support OF a hearty public
sentiment.
Iowa's experience with Prohibition
has not been altogether a pleasant one
II has involved the State in a vast num-
her OF law suits, excited intense local
lrritations, caused, in a single county.
